His reasoning, however flawed, sounded plausible in the fragile atmosphere. Frank took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we want to survive the zombie threat, we need to come to terms with the SiIvy Base. But that doesn’t mean submission. I’ll propose a deal. If they refuse, we’ll use force. Be prepared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the words could settle, several of them frowned. One of the generals scoffed. \"You’re being idiotic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frank’s eyes flicked toward him, but another general stood up first, his chair scraping loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re barely holding on against zombies, and you’re talking about war? Now you want to challenge the SiIvy Base too? I’m out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned and left. A few others followed without hesitation, those who truly understood the SiIvy Base’s power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, only a handful of Frank’s subordinates remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of the departing generals even submitted their resignations on the spot. They already knew where they were going.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Ivy stood atop the walls of her base, her sharp eyes constantly scanning the perimeter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stench of rotting flesh wafted up from beyond the walls, but none of the zombies managed to breach the defenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below, people lined up calmly under her management.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No fear. Some even sat on the ground, eating, casually watching the zombies as if they were some grotesque form of entertainment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Ivy’s lips twitched. She suppressed a smile. ’So carefree...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she began her patrol, a familiar voice reached her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped. She wouldn’t have recognized the person by appearance alone... but the voice was unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’ve heard this voice for nearly two years,’ she thought. ’How could I forget?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her previous life, Ivy had been blind. She had never seen Grace’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she could. When their eyes met, Ivy smiled coldly for a brief moment before masking it completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She resumed walking at an unhurried pace, as if nothing at all had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side of the hall, Grace stared at the pink-haired woman with open admiration, her eyes practically sparkling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Silas had been present, he would have recognized her instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman was Patricia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at this very moment, Grace was fawning over her without restraint, repeatedly calling her Ivy, her voice filled with reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, Patricia had been hired by Ivy the moment Ivy learned that Grace had gone so far as to bully her friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her previous life, Ivy had never known about any of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, she had been drowning in her own sorrow, convinced it was acceptable to ignore the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even when her closest friends suffered, she had been too consumed by her own misery to notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That life is over,’ she thought now. ’This time, I will take justice for them myself.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace kept chatting enthusiastically with Patricia, her words tumbling over one another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted Ivy approaching. Her breath hitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her pupils shrank as she froze, staring between the two pink-haired women standing in the same space. A chill crawled up her spine. ’How can there be two...?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned back to Patricia again and again, mentally counting, confirming that there were indeed two pink-haired women in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Panic bloomed. Finally, she forced a smile and asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-what’s your name?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Patricia replied evenly, her tone calm and detached. \"My name is Patricia.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment those words fell, Grace went stiff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face drained of color as realization slammed into her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’ve been fawning over the wrong person.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her lips twitched, anger bubbling up, and for a split second she wanted to lash out, to accuse Patricia of deception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But reason snapped her back. ’She never once said she was Ivy.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace clenched her fists tightly, nails digging into her palms, before abruptly turning away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rushed toward Ivy, blocking her path, and burst into sobs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound was sharp and sudden, drawing curious glances from those standing nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy didn’t even spare her a look. She continued walking, her steps unhurried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm... people here are alright I should continue,\" she muttered coolly, as if Grace didn’t exist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Panicking, Grace wiped her tears and hurried after her, forcing herself in front of Ivy so she had no choice but to stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy frowned slightly and glanced past her. \"And who are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace straightened immediately, putting on a cautious expression. She looked at Ivy as if wronged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m just a citizen of this base,\" she said smoothly. \"I was almost scammed by someone here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t have time for this,\" Ivy replied flatly, turning to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace rushed forward again, her voice sharp with desperation. \"She’s not Ivy! But you are, you should take action against her!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy paused. Slowly, she raised a brow, her gaze settling on Grace with calm amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And who told you my name was Ivy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace’s face twisted, humiliation and fury blending together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glared at Ivy with burning resentment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, she hadn’t dared say anything to Patricia because she had personally witnessed Patricia’s high standing within the base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this woman? She looked leisurely, unguarded, patrolling casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She must be insignificant.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her restraint snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re shameless!\" Grace shouted. \"If you weren’t Ivy, you should have said so from the beginning!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy smiled faintly, her eyes cool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why would I announce my name to everyone?\" she replied. \"If someone wants to know who I am, they can ask.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace’s fists trembled as she snapped back,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s because people are scamming others in Ivy’s name!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze dropped to Ivy’s hair, and she let out a mocking chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your pink hair must be fake. At least Patricia’s looks real.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, both Ivy and Patricia were speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Patricia subconsciously touched her hair, a strange thought crossing her mind. ’Is my wig really better than hers?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy inhaled slowly, suppressing the anger rising in her chest. Her voice remained steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you done?\" she asked coolly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace felt terrible. Her chest was tight, emotions chaotic, and she desperately needed an outlet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, she pointed at Ivy, her voice shrill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should apologize to me,\" she demanded. \"If you don’t, I won’t let this go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1031,"2026-06-05T15:12:36.808Z",1,"novelbin.me","2f44290396be561be69d7b5253bf0c3d687bdf232bda63187165e4cb4b296526","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-462","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-460",706,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-cover.jpg"]
